Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 increased to $78.2
million, compared with $65.2 million for the fiscal second quarter ended
June 29, 2013. Non-GAAP revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2014
increased to $76.9 million, compared with $64.1 million for the second
quarter of fiscal 2013.

Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $3.2 million, or
$0.32 per diluted share, compared with $1.4 million, or $0.14 per
diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Non-GAAP net
income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $3.2 million, or $0.32
per diluted share, compared with $1.5 million, or $0.15 per
diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2013. GAAP and
non-GAAP net income and earnings per share for the second quarter of
fiscal 2014 reflect a non-cash tax expense of $750,000, or $0.07 and
$0.08 per diluted share, respectively, relating to the correction of an
error in the valuation of deferred tax assets in CRA's historical
financial statements, which is unrelated to current operations.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $12.9 million,
or 16.5% of revenue, compared with $8.9 million, or 13.6% of revenue,
for the second quarter of fiscal 2013. On a non-GAAP basis, the Adjusted
EBITDA for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $12.9 million, or 16.8%
of revenue, compared with $9.0 million, or 14.0% of revenue, for the
second quarter of fiscal 2013.

A complete reconciliation between revenue, net income and net income per
diluted share, and the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, on a GAAP and
non-GAAP basis, for the second quarters of fiscal 2014 and fiscal 2013,
and the year to date periods ended as of the end of these quarters, are
provided in the financial tables at the end of this release.

"During the second quarter, the performances of our Litigation &
Regulatory and Management Consulting businesses were led by solid
contributions in many practices. For example, the Antitrust &
Competition Economics practice and Marakon worked on several large
engagements and delivered strong results, both sequentially and
year-over-year. Companywide utilization for the quarter was 78%,
consistent with the sequential first quarter and up significantly from
the 67% in the same period last year."

"Non-GAAP SG&A expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2014, after
adjusting for commissions to non-employee experts of $2.7 million,
decreased to 18.0% of revenue, compared with 19.6% of revenue in the
second quarter last year. The decrease in non-GAAP SG&A as a percentage
of revenue was primarily due to our ability to continue leveraging our
cost structure during revenue growth."

"As of June 28, 2014, cash and cash equivalents were $27.6 million, down
from $32.5 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The
repurchase of 157,000 shares of our common stock, the payment of 2013
bonuses, and an increase of eight days in our DSO were the principal
factors driving the reduction in the cash balance."

Outlook

"Our portfolio quality is high, project lead flow is strong, and project
conversion rates continue to improve. CRA's financial position is
healthy, and we expect to actively pursue new hires and select
acquisitions that support our core offerings. Through a balanced
approach of organic investments and strategic acquisitions, and assuming
a stable economy, our long-term goal is to profitably deliver top-line
growth in the mid-to-high single digits on an annualized basis,"
concluded Maleh.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to reporting its financial results in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the Company has also
provided in this release non-GAAP financial information. The Company
believes the use of non-GAAP measures in addition to GAAP measures is an
additional useful method of evaluating its results of operations. The
Company believes that presenting its financial results excluding certain
non-cash expenses and the results of the Company's NeuCo subsidiary, and
excluding commissions to non-employee experts from SG&A, is important to
investors and management because it is more indicative of the Company's
ongoing operating results and financial condition. These non-GAAP
financial measures should be considered in conjunction with, but not as
a substitute for, the financial information presented in accordance with
GAAP, and the expected results calculated in accordance with GAAP and
reconciliations to those expected results should be carefully evaluated.
The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated
differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly
titled measures used by other companies. Specifically, for the second
quarters of fiscal 2013 and 2014, and the year to date periods ended as
of the end of these quarters, the Company has excluded NeuCo's results.
Also, in calculating "Adjusted EBITDA," the Company has excluded the
following non-cash expenses: depreciation and amortization, share-based
compensation expenses, and amortization of forgivable loans.
